Housing Options Methodology

2022 RFP/2023 HTC – Data Updated April 2022
Communities with a need for more affordable housing options either have a low share of affordable
rental 1 housing compared to all housing options in a community 2 OR a large share of renters are cost
burdened by their rent 3 (30% or more of household income spent on rent).
Communities are geographically defined by census tracts in the Metropolitan Area, as defined in the
QAP, and Greater Minnesota – Urbanized Areas 4 (these include Duluth, East Grand Forks, La Crescent,
Mankato, Moorhead, Rochester, and Saint Cloud). For Greater Minnesota – Reservations and
Rural/Small Urban Areas 5, communities are geographically defined by reservation boundaries or place
(city).
Projects located in communities are eligible for these points if:
Tier 1 Tracts or Cities, and Reservations (10 points): those in the 80th percentile or higher in the
highest share of cost burdened renters OR in the lowest share of affordable rental housing
relative to the community type. Tribal Reservations and communities are also considered Tier 1
for having a need for more affordable housing options.
Tier 2 Tracts or Cities (8 points): those in the 50 – 79th percentile in the highest share of cost
burdened renters OR in the lowest share of affordable rental housing relative to the community
type.
To acknowledge differences in community types, percentiles were created by comparing census tracts
within each community type.
This document includes maps of the census tracts that meet the two tiers of Need for More Affordable
Housing Options for the Metropolitan Area, as defined in the QAP, and Greater Minnesota – Urbanized
Areas. For Greater Minnesota – Reservations and Rural/Small Urban Areas a map and table of eligible
places are provided. Applicants can map project locations and determine Need for More Affordable
Options points through the Community Profiles interactive map at www.mnhousing.gov/profiles.
If additional areas become eligible applying the same criteria highlighted above using 2014-2018 CHAS
data or 2016-2020 ACS data, Minnesota Housing will add them to the maps; no areas will be
